Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9912512A1] A patient-support apparatus (20) includes a base (22), a patient support (26) on the base (22), an overhead arm (38) located over the patient support (26), and a mounting assembly for attaching the overhead arm (38) to the base (22). The mounting assembly includes an alignment mechanism (126) to properly align the overhead arm (38) with respect to the base (22). The alignment mechanism (126) provides for initial adjustment of the overhead arm (38) relative to the base (22) with respect to at least three different degrees of freedom and for subsequent rigidity of the overhead arm (38) relative to the base (22) after alignment.
